Tower Of Rome was a grindcore band from South Holland, Illinois, that first formed in 2002. After releasing a demo through the music sharing website HardcoreMP3.com, the band were signed onto Hewhocorrupts' label in June 2004 after meeting the group at a live show,[1] who released their two albums All Is Lost...All Is Lost...All Is Yet To Be Found (November 16, 2004)[2] and World War 1 (June 6, 2006).[3] The group toured with Stand Before the Firing Squad across the United States in 2005,[4] and they have also performed with acts such as Melt-Banana and Daughters.[5] The group intended to tour Europe in the summer of 2006,[6] however it was cancelled due to van failure.[7]

The group announced a hiatus in late 2006, citing reasons such as equipment destroyed in a flood, van failure, and multiple cancelled shows.[8][9] The band would eventually reunite in 2007,[10] even performing at Dude Fest 2007.[11] The band has been, however, inactive since. Members have since gone on to bands such as Sorespot, CSTVT, and Sea Of Shit.
